MySQL Tuning

Slide 1: MySQL Tuning Ford AntiTrust

Slide 2: What ? “Managing performance of the memory and processing resources of the computer running the DBMS

Slide 3: Why ? Default settings are for toy databases

Slide 4: Why ? Maximum performance (or Optimal between other services) and Maximum speed

Slide 5: How ? | today • I/O tuning • Optimize Queries • Maintenances • Configurations on DBMS

Slide 6: How ? | today • I/O tuning • Configurations on DBMS

Slide 7: I/O tuning The first bottleneck in database performance encountered.

Slide 8: I/O tuning | effect • Transaction logs • Files associated – Temporary file storage – Table file storage – Index file storage

Slide 9: I/O tuning | recommended • CPU : Disabling HyperThreading • Used different physical storage – Transaction logs Transaction logs and – Temporary file storage temporary spaces are heavy – Table file storage consumers of I/O, and affect – Index file storage performance for all users of • Hard Drive the database. – 7,200+ rpm – SATA/SCSI • RAID levels : 5 + – With battery backed up cache may be important. – Not use NAS.

Slide 11: How ? | today • I/O tuning • Configurations on DBMS

Slide 12: In Architecture • Caches • Connections • Thread • Buffer • Temp tables • Index • Storage Engine • File System • Network I/O • Client Library http://dev.mysql.com/doc/

Slide 13: General • Set ‘sql-mode’ – STRICT_TRANS_TABLES – NO_AUTO_CREATE_USER – NO_ENGINE_SUBSTITUTION“ • Set ‘default-storage-engine’ – to INNODB • Not used ‘old_passwords’ • Use ‘big-tables’ • Use ‘skip-name-resolve’

Slide 14: Log • Use ‘log-slow-queries’ and ‘log-warnings’ – For monitor long time queries and warning messages. • Set ‘long_query_time’ – For log all queries that have taken more than ‘long_query_time’ seconds

Slide 15: Key Buffer Key blocks unused 27683 Key blocks used 1312 Key read requests 1318393 Key reads 1344 Key Buffer = (Key read requests - Key reads) * 100 / Key read requests

Slide 16: Sort / Read / Join Buffer • Set ‘sort_buffer_size’ – Dynamic by number of ‘ORDER BY’ query • Set ‘read_buffer_size’ – Dynamic by traffic and b/w • Set ‘read_rnd_buffer_size’ – Dynamic by ‘GROUP BY’ or ‘ORDER BY’ • Set ‘join_buffer_size’ – Dynamic by join table not use indexes

Slide 17: Query Cache • Set ‘query_cache_size’ – to 10% RAM • Set ‘query_cache_type’ – to 1, Cache all query results except for those that begin with SELECT SQL_NO_CACHE • Set ‘query_cache_limit’ – to 5-10% RAM

Slide 18: Temp Table • Set ‘tmp_table_size’ – to 5-10% RAM • Set ‘max_tmp_tables’ – to 5-10% number of table in all databases • Set ‘tmpdir’ to different physical drive

Slide 19: Thread • Use ‘skip-thread-priority’ • Set ‘thread_concurrency’ – number of Core CPU * 2 • Set ‘thread_cache_size’ – to 100 - ((threads_created / max_connections) * 100)

Slide 20: Table Cache Open tables 1024 Opened tables 1120 table_cache =1024

Slide 21: for InnoDB • Set ‘innodb_buffer_pool_size’ – Typical value 60-80% of memory (If Innodb is only your storage engine) • Use ‘innodb_file_per_table’ • Set ‘innodb_additional_mem_pool_size’ – Do not set too high, avoid memory waste • Set ‘innodb_flush_log_at_trx_commit’ = 2 – Control by OS • Set ‘innodb_thread_concurrency’ – 2*(NumCPUs+NumDisks) – in theory

Slide 22: Never ending in tune-up theory
